If so, you might find this interesting A profile of an actual KGB agent living in the US The quote that originally caught my eye was 'I thought I was smarter than almost everybody' I knew some Russians working at NASA (the ISS) -- and this quote fit one of them perfectly It made me wonder if he was a spy too https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/feb/11/thought-smarter-everybody-kgb-spy-jack-barsky
I love The Americans, but I hate how long they are gone before new seasons begin. Still, I will be recording on my DVR when they start back up in March.
I've watched several episodes and really enjoyed them. I just don't have, or make, time to watch. Fascinating link. Thanks for posting.
Most "spies" want to blend, not call attention to themselves. KGB agents are excellent at blending and fitting in, but sometimes lack patience, and that's when they get nabbed and sent home.
